Solemyidae (Bivalvia, Protobranchia) from the lower Miocene of south-central Chile, with description of a new species

Abstract The Miocene Solemyidae of Chile are revised. The holotype of Solemya antarctica Philippi, 1887, originally described as Solenomya , is lost. Due to the lack of information on internal characters, its systematic position is considered as uncertain. A new species, Solemya lucifuga n. sp., is...
